I have a seperate git gui open in the background all the time. It shows me all the changes I made since last commit. So coding without commiting a long time will result in lots of changes piled up there. When that gets to much to overview or I feel the need for a savepoint (to do some experimentation) I commit. When I didn't commit for a long time (mostly during long refactorings) I break up the changes into logical groups and commit them seperately using the interactive commiting feature. Using a good GUI to help me there improved that workflow a lot for me.
